vandeathwood Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Anyone have a clue what this is between the arm pits of my dog? Never seen it before, Should I be worried? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
persephone Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 It's tricky at a distance .. but , do you walk dog using a harness ? it looks to me like rub marks from an ill-fitting /harsh fabric harness? Other than that.. an itchy spot which has been scratched? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vandeathwood Posted July 15, 2012 Author Share Posted July 15, 2012 I Dont use a harness, It's a spot that he can't access to be scratched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuralPug Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Could it be a spider bite or something? And -um- did you mean UNidentifiable rash? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebanne Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 how old is the dog? Could it be "teenage" acne? I had a GSD years ago that got a rash in the armpit area and that's what the vet called it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormie Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 Are you sure he can't scratch there? My allergic boy often gets itchy around his elbows, armpits and other less covered areas and he's a pro and scratching his armpits! He just uses his back leg and gets right up in there.
